Summer, Vacation Week, and Adult Programs!

CMS is different from other camp programs because we are ALL HORSES, ALL DAY! We offer a hands-on, interactive approach to learning horsemanship that keeps kids active and engaged. Beginners are welcome! Session groups are split by ability level, and are taught by experienced, licensed instructors. All sessions include a daily mounted riding lesson. Camps run all summer and during school vacation weeks in February and April.

Specialty weeks provide students variety throughout the summer, and allow riders to choose the focus of their weeks at the barn. Our Saddle Up program is available for children new to riding or who want a broad-based experience at camp. Riders who have been to camp before, or who have some riding experience, can expand their knowledge in their personal areas of interest. Experienced and competitive riders will appreciate our more advanced Horse Show, Jumping and IEA sessions. All camps are run with an emphasis on safety and building confidence on and around the horses.

Enrolling in camp is easy! Just click Step 1 to enroll and pay by credit card. Then click Step 2 print out and mail the required registration forms. Rather pay by check? No problem! Skip Step 1 and mail in your check along with the registration forms in Step 2.
